Written by one of the world's most distinguished historians of early modern history, A Freeborn People is a provocative exploration of the ways in which the political cultures of the elite and of the common people intersected during the seventeenth century.
David Underdown shows that the two worlds were not as separate as historians have often thought them to be; English men and women of all social levels had similar expectations about good government and about the traditional liberties available to them under the "Ancient Constitution." Throughout the century, both levels of... Written by one of the world's most distinguished historians of early modern history, A Freeborn People is a provocative exploration of the wa...

Revel, Riot, and Rebellion: Popular Politics and Culture in England 1603-1660
ISBN: 9780192851932 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What do maypoles, charivari processions, and stoolball matches have to do with the English civil war? A great deal, argues Underdown in this provocative reinterpretation of the English Revolution. Underdown uses case histories of three western counties to show that the war was, above all, the result of profound disagreements among people of all social levels about the moral basis of their communities--that commoners as well as rulers held strong opinions about order and governance. Through an original synthesis of social history and popular culture, Underdown links these regionally diverse...

ISBN: 9780300059908 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Dorchester--the west-country town immortalized by Thomas Hardy as Casterbridge--was two hundred years before Hardy's time the most fervently religious town in England. The catalyst that turned a provincial backwater into a "godly community" was a great fire in 1613 that devastated much of the town and enabled the new pastor, John White, to lead the town in a kind of spiritual mass conversion that lasted for fifty years. In this book David Underdown describes the transformation of Dorchester, placing it in the context of national events (the English Civil War, Cromwell's rule, and the...
